68
Lived in Newport all her life. Brought up in Maindee with her mum and dad and 1 sister Janet.
Was married to my Dad John for almost 48 years and had 7 children (4 boys and 3 girls) raised very
well too by them both. She was a loving Nanna to 19 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren and an
Aunty to many also.
Mum suffered with stomach cancer, which after 5 years being in remission, and devastatingly after
gruelling and intense chemo came back with a vengence and spread to her liver and she sadly passed
on. She loved her bingo and going away every year to Devon in a caravan with Dad and visiting
relatives there. Her last job, which she loved was a Mini Bus Escort for special needs children.
I love her so much and miss her so badly. I thank her for my childhood and all that she was to me,
my Mum, my best friend and was there always when I needed her. God Bless Mum
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Please could you also remember my Nephew ~ Robert Ellender, who we sadly lost 6 months after my
Mum.
I would like to say a big thank you for everyones love and support to myself, my darling mother Val
and my gorgeous nephew Rob .Thank You again so much and my love goes out to you and your angels
also.

~Life Beyond ~
Let them go, but not completely.
Hold on to them, but not too tightly.
Love them as you know you will,
as you always have.
Rejoice that they are well, the only difference
now is that you cannot see them,
But you feel them still and they will always be with you.
The spirit does not die as the body dies
and Love is of the spirit.
Nothing you have experienced together can be taken from you.
And your loved one shall be eternally yours in that love.
Weep not too long, that they may also cry,
But rejoice in their life and in yours also.
Let yours continue to be a celebration of all life; of your shared love,
Knowing that God holds you both in the palm of his hand
And in loving you both shall reunite you.

Don't weep at my grave,
For I am not there,
I've a date with a butterfly
To dance in the air.
I'll be singing in the sunshine,
Wild and free,
Playing tag with the wind,
While I'm waiting for thee.
Love sent Always xxxx

Tributes For Week Starting 9th November
FOR MONDAY
Your presence I miss,
Your memory I treasure,
Loving you always,
Forgetting you never.
FOR TUESDAY
Loving you is easy,
We do it every day,
Missing you is a heartache,
That never goes away.
FOR WEDNESDAY
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God can tell us why.
FOR THURSDAY
Memory is a lovely lane,
Where hearts are ever true,
A lane I so often travel down,
Because it leads to you.
FOR FRIDAY
Wings Of The Angels
A gentle wind blew cross the land
Reaching out to take a hand
For on the winds the angels came
Calling out a mother's name.
Left behind, the children's tears
Loving memories of the years
Of joy and love, a life well spent
And now to God a mother's sent.
On angel's wings, a heavenly flight
The journey home, towards the light
To those who weep, a life is gone
But in God's love, 'tis but the dawn.
FOR SATURDAY
If I Had One Last Day
If I had one last day
To tell you what's inside
I'd tell you that I'm sorry
For all the times I've lied
I'd tell you that I need you
To hold my hand today
I'd tell you that I love you
I'd ask you, please, to stay
You'd look at me and smile
The way you always would
And say "I'd love to stay,
If only I really could"
Then you'd laugh the way you did
Whenever I was blue
You'd wipe my tears and whisper softly,
"Don't cry, I love you too"
If I had one last day
I'd love you from the start
I'd stop hiding how I feel
I'd say what's in my heart
If I had one last day,
I'd say my last good-bye
And that even though you are far away,
In my heart, you'll never die.
FOR SUNDAY
Cry Not My Friend
When you wake up tomorrow
And I am no where to be found
When you scream out my name
To the emptiness around
When every beat inside your heart
Is skipping and unsure
Cry not my friend for I am here,
Inside your love so pure
When the waves that used to touch our feet
Have gone back out to sea
When everything you once held dear
Was lost when you lost me
When the sun that once lit up your face
Is setting far away
Cry not my Friend for time shall pass,
But my love for you will stay
When age arrives and children play
And pain creeps up on you
When loved ones show you happiness
That your life never knew
When all of your expectations are met,
No matter what the pain
Cry not my friend, for I am waiting
To hold you once again
When beauty in your eyes turn grey
And all of the rainbow, white
When strong undying hearts
No longer feel an urge to fight
When winter snows become more pain
Than beauty in your heart
Cry not my friend, for I am here
And we will never ever part

TRIBUTE FOR THURSDAY 5.11.09
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
The size of sadness
Can you measure our pain?
It reaches the stars and back again
Can you count our tears?
They are as many as winter rain
Can you weigh our emptiness?
The world and more would come to less
With no hope of sun tomorrow
That's how we see our sorrow
Add all together -The size of sadness
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR FRIDAY 6.11.09.
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
Having you not with me
Hurts more and more each day
Although I feel a closeness
In a very special way
Even as I go to sleep
Every thought is of you
And I never thought i'd miss you
In quite the way I do
So i'm hoping that these words
May some how let you know
That you're in my heart forever
And i'll always love you so
The one and only thing
That helps me with the pain
Is dreaming of the time
When I will see you once again...
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
TRIBUTE FOR SATURDAY 07.1109
..?..*• ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**•.. ? .•**..?..
My love is with you
Oh What can I say?
My heart is empty without you each and every day.
The Angel wings you wear must be so grand,
if only I could reach out and touch your hand,
maybe then we could say goodbye,
which would help dry the tears that I cry
Now I know that’s impossible for us to do,
so let’s make a deal just you and me.
When I look to the stars at night,
you look for me with all your might,
when you see me just shine real bright,
together we can send our love
and say Good Night.
I would like to wish you all a very good weekend and God Bless all our Angels and all our BRAVE HERO'S who have Lost Their Lives.
With love as always Linda.xxx

HANDS OF HOPE
Hands Of Hope
by John Leroy Maxwell
We live in a world, where uncertainty reigns in almost everyone's life.
Everyday plans that used to be sure, are now filled with doubt and strife.
Some people go on with their lives, with an attitude hard and bold.
So many others seek comfort and hope, and need a strong hand to hold.
We're apt to wander aimlessly, when there is no one to guide.
If you see your fellow man, traveling in this world so wide.
Open your hands of compassion, and spread new seeds of pride.
So release the light of all that is good.
Let it filter thru the lands.
Let others know that what they feel, comes lovingly from Open Hands. xxx






























Create an ever lasting memorial for your loved ones.
